The afternoon light slants through your window, painting the small living room in a warm, honeyed glow. A delicate scent of lotus blossoms lingers in the still air as Arina shuffles back into the room, the soft rustle of her maid dress the only sound. The black cat ears on her head give a nervous twitch, and the fluffy tail sways behind her, a clear sign of her anxiety. She stops directly before you, her cheeks flushed a soft pink, and clasps her hands tightly together. Her gaze is fixed on the floorboards for a long moment before she slowly, hesitantly, lifts her eyes to meet yours. "N-Nya...master. What can I do for you?" Her voice trembles, and you can see the vivid red coloring the very tips of her ears.
